Brighten up Blue Monday with 20% discount for phone line rental

buzzbox Telecom, a leading UK telecoms company that offers fully featured cloud-based phone systems, is helping its potential customers to brighten up their so-called Blue Monday – the saddest day of the year- by offering a 20% discount for three months for business telephone line rental, if they sign up within this week.

If a business phone contract is coming to an end or a potential client is in the process of starting up a new business empire this January, buzzbox can change their existing phone service with a package rich in features (call recording, diverting to mobile, voicemail, hold music, keeping your number), at a fraction of the cost. The offer for this week, until 19 January 2018, will be 20% off a business telephone line rental for three months and thereafter it is a monthly rolling contract, which means that potential customers can cancel their contract at any time.

Stuart Spice, Founder and Director of buzzbox Telecom comments: “A lot of people have New Year’s Resolutions, new business aspirations and want to sort out their finances at the start of the year. We offer no bill shocks, which means that we are a transparent and cost-effective alternative to the traditional telecom incumbents and we make it possible to save businesses an awful lot of money by switching to our services.”

Spice continues: “Today, on the saddest day of the year and the longest month between paydays, we thought it would be a great opportunity to offer this discount. I hope that this will help new or established businesses get back into the swing of things and feel less depressed on this miserable day.”

Why Our Love Affair with the Cloud is Changing

There's a new thing called Cloud Repatriation in the computing world. I suppose it's the opposite of expatriation which officially means 'to withdraw oneself from residence in one's native country'. In this context however, the term refers to repatriating your servers and computing power into your office and getting it off the cloud. In simple terms, take all that effort you spent shoving your stuff into the cloud - and reverse it. 'But why!?' I hear you cry. Or perhaps you’re not, since by asking that very question you probably already know full well why. But in case you are still asking 'But why!?', let me jog your memory. Go Cloud, go go go! The concept of shoving all of your worldly digital belongings onto someone else’s kit was all the rage some years ago. It was 'safe', 'fast', 'cheaper' and 'convenient'. It seemed like a good idea, for only a few quid per month, I could have the latest version o...

The struggles of number porting

There is one part of my business I truly hate. It's laborious, expensive and boring. No, it's not the accounts or staff appraisals. It is the number porting process. The what? You know when you change your mobile phone provider and you want to keep your old number? Well moving that number to the new provider is called porting. You get given a PAC code and the process is seamless (mostly) and done within 24 hours. Porting also exists in the landline world. Except it's the complete polar opposite of the mobile experience. It's slow, costly and fraught with pitfalls. For example, the process of porting your old landline number to a new provider requires you to get as much information about your line from the old provider as possible. However, you'll soon find: * Your old provider doesn't have a porting desk, or even has the faintest clue as to what porting even is. * If you do find someone who can talk to you, they'll likely give you the wrong ins...

What about GDPR and my website? We use Google’s services on it

Good question, glad you asked. So GDPR is the new “General Data Protection Regulation” and comes into force May 25 th 2018 for us EU residing souls. Although in principle it seems like headache inducing bureaucracy, it is in fact a well needed set of laws that prevent the current systemic interchange and flow of personal data on a massive scale. It’s kind of like someone finally inventing the seat belt for the automobile. It’s not perfect and it’s overly complicated so this is definitely a V1.0 but it will improve over time. Anyway, back to my question – GDPR in a nutshell has beef with any company using data for purposes that aren’t strictly essential to justify their collection – and it’s particularly hormonal towards companies that hoard data about individuals (versus business). For most of us, that’s probably not a major concern, tighten up your policies, document them and you’re good. However, there is a bit of a sticky spot when it comes to the concept of ‘third part...
